There's another Star Online article with some reference to Simon 'The classy Longines-Queen Elizabeth Stakes deal'
Excerpt:
The day’s allure was further elevated with the presence of Longines Ambassador of Elegance Simon Baker. The lead of hit television series The Mentalist caught the race from one of the racecourse’s upstairs ballrooms, next to the one which housed Australian prime minister Tony Abbott.
Earlier in the day, the 44-year-old actor said that he’s delighted to have Longines present at his home city.
“I get to see my city put its best foot forward and see it in a great light. That feels really really cool,” he says.
“You get to see how festive Australians get because they really embrace the idea of having a good time. We’re kind of professional at it,” he adds.
However, the Tasmania native was there for more than just a flutter on the horses. Baker presented Melissa Hann – winner of the Longines Award of Elegance competition – with a precious timepiece from the Conquest Classic collection. The 31-year-old Hann was one of six finalists and hailed as the most elegant lady at the race.

I think it is so touching, how proud he is of Australia, and how he is also proud to BE Australian, and to stand up and be counted!! |

I agree about him being proud of his Australian roots and I love the fact that he still calls Australia "home" in his interviews although he now lives mainly in America. There was talk of him applying for US Citizenship some time ago and I know that some of his Australian friends were a little surprised about this. Did he in fact apply in the end, I can't remember? |

I agree with you both. I like people who lives far away from home and proud of their roots anyway. Simon speaks always lovely about Australia and maybe he will back there one day.
And I want say Hello!
I'm German woman and love Simon Baker, The Mentalist, The Guardian and all other things with Simon.
I'm happy to be here with other Simon fans!
